​The Oyster Girls is a ladies’ Morris dance side from the Isle of Wight. The side has been dancing since 1981, although with much change of personnel over the years. The very first dance that the group learned was ‘Mobberly’ danced to the tune of ‘The Oyster Girl’ hence the name of the side.

We mainly dance in the north-west tradition of Morris dancing, and wear clogs. Many of our dances originate from the north-west of England
